Services
Home Inspection
Our comprehensive home inspections utilize infrared cameras, moisture meters, and carbon monoxide detectors to identify structural, mechanical, and environmental issues. With 2-2.5 hours on-site and detailed reporting completed the same day, we provide actionable insights for buyers and sellers. Our 35-year real estate expertise ensures thorough assessments of electrical systems, HVAC, plumbing, and potential safety hazards.
Termite Inspection
Included with every full home inspection, our NPMA-33 termite inspection identifies active infestations, wood damage, and conducive conditions. Using specialized tools, we examine foundation cracks, moisture-prone areas, and structural wood components. The detailed report includes photographic evidence and recommendations for prevention or treatment, ensuring clients understand potential risks before property transactions.
Infrared Camera Inspection
Advanced infrared technology detects hidden moisture intrusion, electrical hotspots, and insulation deficiencies undetectable to the naked eye. This non-invasive method provides thermal images showing temperature variations, helping identify energy loss, water damage, and HVAC inefficiencies. Combined with standard inspections, it offers complete visibility into structural performance and maintenance needs.
